Active Ingredient: Bromazepam
Bromazepam is indicated for anxiety. Benzodiazepines are only indicated when the disorder is severe, disabling or subjecting the individual to extreme distress.
For this indication, competent medicine agencies globally authorize below treatments:
Oral
3 - 60 mg
From 1 To 20 mg 3 time(s) per day every day
The lowest dose which can control symptoms should be used. The optimum dosage and frequency of administration of bromazepam should be based on the individual patient, the severity of symptoms and previous psychotropic drug history.
The usual dosage in general practice is from 3 mg to 18 mg daily in divided doses. In exceptional circumstances, in hospitalised patients, up to the maximum daily dosage of 60 mg in divided doses, may be given. A reduction in dose for elderly patients is recommended. Treatment should always be tapered off gradually. Patients who have taken benzodiazepines for a prolonged time may require a longer period during which doses are reduced. Specialist help may be appropriate.
Elderly patients require lower doses because of individual variations in sensitivity and pharmacokinetics; doses should not exceed half those normally recommended.
